I have a similar bleed tube from the top of the rad back to the header
and having lots of other issues before i sorted the cooling , i believe
that has worked very well to keep the system free of air locks
i put in new rad and made up a bleed fitting with an adapter to take the
bleed hose
the result is i never have to bleed the rad
